Food is Michael Antonorsi's life. Yet the president and master chocolatier of Chuao Chocolatier, based in Carlsbad, tapped into his culinary passion late in life.

Yet after deciding that the life of a restaurant chef wasn't the right fit for him, Antonorsi moved back to San Diego to start a business venture with his brother Richard.
